Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Ive now noticed playing as a PF you have to call for the ball often to get it, otherwise your teammates overlook you. I started over today to get the very latest roster, wanted to go back to the Jazz they passed on me and I fell to the Suns. Played 3 games so far. We 2-1 last game I had 19pts 4rebs 3ast 1blk 1stl I was able to finally score as I realized I needed to start demanding the rock.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

The thing that makes my Turnover problems frustrating is that most of them come from big men taking it from it. I wouldnt mind if players like Rondo, Westbrook, Rose, or Cp3 picks my pocket because they are know for it. But, I hate when Noah, Boozer, Bynum, and Gasol getting 2+ steals every time I face them. It has me checking their ratings and tendencies like crazy.
The way how I can contain is that I have to play a slower pace. Since my Speed and Quickness is 80(Q is82), I cant run by anyone anyway. There are passes I know I can avoid. But, I dont like giving up TOs on open players. The CPU slides into position and steals it. I have to be more aware and even more selfish as a PG. If I want to, I could score 35+ easily. But, as a PG I dont want to take more than 18 shots. I rather get 15-20 pts and 12+ assists than getting 35+ pts and 3-5 assists

ya you gotta call for it. also you can tell how you're team is going to set up usually as your coming up the court. if theres no bigs to one side i can almost always post up there before they start kicking the ball around and they'll dump it off to me in the post.

PG/ATHLETIC/SUNS/62 OVR

So, I was drafted by the Suns. And don't get me wrong, I love the team, and I know that each MP I play, Nash is always traded - but I don't want to wait until then. I'm looking for a team to trade to. Last time I did an Athletic PG, I requested a trade to the Heat. Well, I don't want to do that again. I also don't want to be on the Knicks. I'd rather be on a team that's either rebuilding, or just mediocre.

My first choice would be the Kings. And then the Jazz. Does anybody have any other suggestions on where to request a trade to?

i've definitely noticed the scripted rebounding stuff. i use luvitz physics patch on the pc which helps get rid of the ridiculous 2nd bounces on the rebounds. my teams definitely shoots better if i'm set up under the rim boxing someone out for a board.

Right, and I think a lot of people don't seem to get that you shouldn't leave you teammates on an island to defend their man as well as our opponents play defense on us. The way I see it, our opponents are basically wide open for jumpers, so in turn, I try to swing by and attempt to affect as many shots as I can without leaving my man(depending on who he is) widen a position to score.

That trading stuff doesn't happen as much post patch. If your team plays well enough, they may keep him.

I will just say we got the series sweep 4-0. I will post my stat lines for all 4 when I get it up via a edit.

How did PHX make the playoffs?

Is anybody else getting this glitch on My Player? Every single foul results in free throws. Reaches, charges, loose ball fouls.. everything.

Yup, quite annoying

most notably in the 4th qtr.

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

No... I get the reach all the time and they never shoot free throws unless it's in the penalty...

Re: Official NBA 2K12 My Player Thread

Got my requested trade to the Kings. Currently the 6th man. When I was checking the roster, it turns out they'd traded Terrence Williams & Hassan Whiteside for Gerald Wallace. One of my favorite players in the NBA. This team is going to be unstoppable.

The actual trade between the Suns & Kings went like this:

Suns give: My Player & Marcin Gortat

Kings give: Jimmer Fredette & '13 First Rd. Pick.

I couldn't be more stoked to be on the Kings. Now I've just gotta beat out my favorite PG in the league, Isaiah Thomas for the starting spot.

Also, I'm pretty upset that Gortat has the starting PF position for the Kings.

PG/ATH/JAZZ/ROOKIE/83 OVR

1st seed Utah Jazz vs. 8th seed Phoenix Suns
This is going to be quick recaps of the 1st round and then I'll give you the first game of round 2 vs. The Defending Champions The Dallas Mavericks.

Game 1: was a intense game that pushed my team to it's limits.
110-106 Utah Jazz

Stat Line:
P.Henderson - 42 Min 49 Pts 2 Reb 19 Ast 10 Stl 1 Blk 5 T.O. 19-34 FG 0-1 3pt 11-12 FT

Game 2: Well the first game 2 I played MP hit a game winning shot at the end of the first OT with a Buzzer beater. The 2nd Game was a demolition by the Jazz as MP broke the single game Playoff record and went off for 66 Pts in a 107-95 Utah Jazz.

Stat Line:
P. Henderson - 42 Min 66 Pts 5 Reb 7 Ast 7 Stl 2 Blk 3 T.O. 24-43 FG 0-1 3pt 18-21 FT

Game 3: This is the game that I believe broke the Suns as Utah went on to destroy them in front of there fans 92-67 Utah Jazz.

Stat Line:
P. Henderson - 40 Min 52 Pts 5 Reb 5 Ast 8 Stl 1 Blk 6 T.O. 20-37 FG 12-13 FT

game 4: The game played out a lot better than the last two as the suns were able to stick around and eventually go on a run during the 3rd to cut the Jazz lead to 5 going into the 4th, but My team stepped up defensively and outscored Phoenix 26-12 in the quarter to advance to the 2nd round 110-91 Utah Jazz.

Stat Line:
P. Henderson - 42 Min 50 Pts 9 Reb 14 Ast 8 Stl 1 Blk 3 T.O. 18-43 FG 14-15 FT

The most significant thing I didn't like about this serious is the amount of shots I had to take to keep my team in the game during the long runs and the fact I had to call time outs properly because our coach would just watch the other team get on a big run and not call a time out.

I will have the first game of the Dallas series up asap
